    Mixing and matching components

    I'm looking to buy the Aqua Medic 1000 Reactor (diffusor) but the Aqua Medic regulator is a bit out of my price range (and does not include a solenoid valve). Would it be possible to use something like this - http://www.aquariumsupplies.ca/wregulat ... p-798.html - instead?

    Newbie question - Setting up a CO2 distribution system
